title: Role of nitric oxide in transmission of dengue virus specific suppressor signal.
abstract: Production of NO2- was maximum when peritoneal M phi was incubated with SF (40 mg) for 45 min. Pretreatment of M phi with anti-SF-antisera inhibited production of NO2- Pretreatment of M phi with NG monomethyl L-arginine (L-NMA) or arginase, an inhibitor of L-arginine dependent pathway, inhibited production of NO2- and transmission of suppressor signal in a dose-dependent manner. This indicates that NO and Ca2+ serve as intracellular signal in transmission of DV-induced suppressor signal.
